My theme this month is love and friendship, so I have a prompt for writing about friends. What’s the relationship between these two characters? I’d love to read your inspiration. Mine’s below.
Amelia rubbed my nose. “Do you want more fish?”
“No.” I swiveled on my belly to bring Amelia’s mother, my “trainer”, into view. “Tell your mom to come over here.”
She kissed my nose. “Okay …” she did her best to reproduce my name, but humans can’t possibly make the clicks sound right.
Amelia raced over to Jessica and grabbed her hand. “(squeak, click) wants to talk to you.”
She broke into a smile. “You mean Racer does?”
“Yeah.” Amelia pulled on her mother’s arm. “But that’s not his name.”
As Jessica crouched beside me, Amelia release her hand and patted my head.
“Jessica, I need you to listen to me,” I said. My voice was high-pitched but intelligible.
Jessica’s smile vanished, and she collapsed out of her crouch.
